Haha, I've started school as well. Which is why I've been un-active, I'm terribly sorry! I'll do my best to get on as much as possible, but my school work always come first!
You guys make me feel young! *sighs*
I believe I'm one of, if not the youngest member of this guild. I'm only in eight grade. Bumbummmbummm. I admit I was twelve when I started Gaia, but now I'm fourteen so I doesn't matter anyway... *laughs*
Minerva: Happy birthday! So sorry I missed it! I hope it was a great birthday!
Suze: Welcome to Gryffindor! I'm Super Gryffindor Prefect, and Quidditch Capitan. If you have any questions feel free to ask, I'd be happy to help!

Okay, thanks. I remember 8th grade last year. Awhh the good times. Enjoy it before you have to go to confusing high school. I have 8 classes and homework in every single one of them on the first week. That is outrageous for a Freshman. Though I am taking Sophmore and Junior classes (even if I can't spell Sophmore.) so I guess that's it. It's stupid though.

I have eight classes as well, I've also been getting homework every night since fourth grade in every subject. Our district has very high expectations >.<
After a while I wonder why they give kids homework every night! In middle school I can understand, but elementary school...thats just not right! xD
I blame them for the way we all turned out. No fun all books.
You get the honor of being on honor roll and then you get forced into other things because of it.
*Laughs*

If anyone has any extra green ink would you mind donating it to me? I'm trying to save up for the green body paint. I think full body dye requires 500 bottles of ink! eek Remember to send extra black and white ink to Scotties Miakitty!

I think the reason standards are being set so high in schools now is because in Japan those kids are geniuses, the 6th graders are learning stuff 8th graders are learning over here!!! eek I'm not entirely sure thats the reason why, but it could be...I saw an advertisement about that on FF.net. Its good for us though, prepares us for college.
Oh wow, all this talk about 8th grade is making me sad. I miss 8th grade! Once I got to highschool as a freshy, I was at the bottom of the foodchain again. I'm moving on up though, I'm a junior now, oh yeah!

Minerva: I'll check my inventory, I might have some ink, but I believe I donated most of mine already. :3
Kirby: Well the Japanese children also have less breaks and vacations. I also believe there school days are longer then ours and they go six days a week. At least thats how my second cousin's school in Japan is.

Oh wow, you have a cousin in Japan!!! I wish I went to school there. Yeah, I heard it's rigorous over there. I heard they also go to school on Saturday's over there! It pays off though, since most of them are geniuses.

Haha. Glad I am not in Japan then. I can barely handle 40 hours a week of school. It gives me a headache. In middle school, they claimed they were going to give us all this homework but we did it all in class. Now, I am going to have a ton of projects for Engineering, Bio, and English. Plus, I can't understand my geometry teacher talk. It'll be a great year... not. I never knew kids in Japan are geniuses. That's pretty cool. I would hate going to school on Saturdays. That would be horrible.
I will look if I have any ink. I just got this account so I don't have much. I'll check though.

Ok ok, totally random, but I'm just so excited about it!
Of course, we all know about the two up and coming movies I'm ever so happy to go see, Twilight and HBP, but did you all know that, at this very moment, another marvelous movie is being concocted?
My favorite director and my favorite actor are at it again! Tim Burton recently announced that he is beginning the process of creating his own version of Alice in Wonderland, and that Johnny Depp has been cast as The Mad Hatter (hence the mad hatter hat I have equipped.)
Can any of you point out the other Tim Burton aspects of my newest avy? There are quite a few! I'm making this into a game in one of the subs in my Twilight guild just for fun hee hee.
And how old are you? I'm only 16...
OH! Next year Scottie might be able to go to Japan for that Ninja Warrior show! so jealous.
And my uncle is going there for work. Even more jealous.
But he's bringing me a present, so I forgive him.

Wow! I can't wait to see the new Alice in Wonderland. You didn't happen to notice the release date, did you?
I'm 22. I think I may very well may be the granny of Haven's Gryffindor house.

Yep my Grandma grew up in Japan. I have a million relatives over there! I've been twice, if you ever have the opportunity to go you really should!
Alice in Wonderland! I love that movie, mainly because my sister is Alice...haha.
-Feels younger-
Well I'm considered mature for my age! >.<
I'll try and see if I got a good picture from last nights formal party!

When I was younger, that movie always confused me for some reason. It's cool though. I am majorly sick right now so I am extrememly bored and my father is trying to make me clean. Not a good combo...

MiaKitty, Scottie might go to Japan to be on Ninja Warrior?! No way!!! I used to watch that show when I had the channel. It's really hard and physically straining. Scottie must be extremely athletic!
